Trump eyes lifting sanctions, potential sale of prized fighter jet to Turkey
Fox News
President Donald Trump is considering lifting sanctions on Turkey and resuming the sale of fighter jets to Turkey at the request of President Recep Erdogan.
That agreement could look like partially disassembling the machinery or moving it to a U.S.-controlled base in Turkey.
Congress approved the $23 billion sale of 40 F-16s and modernization kits for 79 in its current fleet to Turkey last year, but there are ongoing negotiations between Turkey’s defense ministry and Lockheed Martin, which builds the jet.
